| Abstract | We have developed PeerStreaming, an on-demand peer-to-peer (P2P) media streaming system. The behavior of a PeerStreaming client is very much like an ordinary media player: it streams and plays whatever media the user desires, starting at whatever point he/she desires. Under the hood, however, the media is delivered from multiple peers to the client. The serving peers can be the media server, but more commonly they are the clients that have received the media in a previous streaming session. Leveraging the network and storage resources of the P2P network and retrieving a major part of the media from nearby peers, PeerStreaming greatly improves streaming media quality, reduces server load, and eases traffic on the network. We describe the design and implementation of the PeerStreaming system in this paper, with a focus on a number of key components. They include: (1) peer discovery and content location, (2) scalable coded and randomly accessible media format, (3) receiver-driven streaming, (4) digital rights management, and (5) architecture for the media rendering, caching and serving system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
